Deschutes County closed the gap around its cities: from 2026-04-01, ORSC R327 is mandatory for new dwellings and accessory structures throughout the unincorporated county. If you build outside a city limit here, what applies to your house is the county's answer.

The county's current pages also name common exclusions and a local drawing path, so scope is genuinely local — and the boundary, project, and sign-off checks stay open under what we can't tell you yet.

The high-desert palette is the same as Bend's: USDA half-zones 6a and 6b, 521 plant records documented for the county of Oregon's 623. Living here sorts what grows.

What we can't tell you yet

Oregon has 11 sourced local nodes; 5 have a sourced construction application. Adoption is not statewide by implication: Lincoln County, Marion County, Medford, Portland, Redmond, Yamhill County have none sourced here.

These checks stay open because the sourced instrument leaves them to the official record, not because this page skipped them:

The official boundary that would put a parcel inside the application.
Confirmation from the building official for this project.
Whether this project type is in scope of the instrument.
